Product Description
Get out! No matter what your age, MaryJane Butters walks you to the door and OUT you go. Wilderness ranger turned Idaho organic farmer, MaryJane is a woman OUTSIDE . . . the norm. Drawing from her own diverse background, she?ll show you exactly HOW to get outdoors?and what to do once you?re there.
Think and get inspired in her OUTTHINKING chapter. Head to your porch, yard, or rooftop, using the innovative and easy suggestions you?ll find in OUTBOUND. Kick up a little sass with her ideas in OUTRIGGED, joining the ranks of ?reel? women who go tramping (trailer camping), or wily huntresses who take the kind of ?heart shots? that knock ?em dead and into the freezer. In OUTSTEPPING, learn to load a backpack with her unique high-protein meal plan that won?t break the bank or your back.
And throughout these pages you?ll encounter the inspirational stories of OUTSPOKEN women who?ve blazed the trail and beyond. By the time you turn the last page, you?ll be going flat-OUT for all the world to see.

 buy one for yourself and one for a friend November 18, 2008
It was more than I expected. Not only did it have lots of good tips for creating my own outpost, it had great stories about strong women. It's a great coffee table book too. It's tempting to pick up and hard to put down.
The photographs are a bonus.

What a wonderful book If you love being outside, this is a must read for you. I love the outdoors, but live in a small city, I will bring the outdoors to my backyard with all the great ideas. It just gives you such a warm cozy feeling reading this book. What to read more!!!
 Children everywhere September 18, 2008
I am a fan of MaryJane and a Farmgirl. I have all her books and I love them. My problem with this one is the excessive focus on children. If I had wanted a book on activities for children, I would have looked for a book on the subject. There are many things I love but that ruined it for me.
...Love at first sight! July 13, 2008

This is a true story. I was in a bookstore looking in the "Antique Price
Guide" section when I came across THIS book! Now whether it was MISHELVED,
MISPLACED or someone had stashed it there.. to come back later and buy..
I WAS SOOO GLAD IT WAS THERE! I spent the next 4 1/2 hours (!!) reading
this one-of-a kind gem! I never met anyone quite like this author. BUT
I sure would like to! She takes you on a journey to another place and time
..and shows you how THEN could be NOW. She entrances with her down home
wisdom and bit's of her life story. I really NEVER felt the 4 1/2 hours
go by.( Perhaps it was a "out of body" experience? If so I want to go back!!)This book made me enchanted and giddy. It made me yearn to go horseback riding again. In short it made me want to rediscover myself.
Now I would have stayed there longer reading it, but alas they had to close! READ THIS BOOK. Get back in touch with the things that matter.
WONDERFUL, WONDERFUL BOOK!
I LOVE this book!! July 2, 2008

Oh my..this may be my favorite of MaryJane's books yet..and I love them all. Just the most fun, informative and beautiful ideas! I love that it has so many ideas for enjoying the outdoors with my kids and for making my own backyard a outdoor "fun zone". The recipes, ideas and projects are just wonderful...can't wait to try them all!!
I am SO glad I got this book right away...LOVE IT!!!!
